Platinum supported on pristine and nitrogen-doped bowl-like broken hollow carbon spheres as oxygen reduction reaction catalysts

Abstract: The development of active and durable proton exchange membrane fuel cell catalysts with high loading (ca. 40%) is critical for the commercialization of hydrogen fuel cells. Herein we report on the synthesis of a novel Pt/C catalyst using a novel bowl-like broken hollow carbon sphere (and N doped sphere) support (carbon shell thickness ~ 4.6 nm). Highly dispersed Pt nanoparticles (dPt ~ 4 nm) were deposited on both supports and within the carbon shell. The Pt particles in the pores were exposed on both sides of… Show more

“…Also, in these shell regions of the supports, the Pt maps indicate more than a single layer of Pt particles, indicating penetration into the HCSs/NHCSs shells by the Pt particles as it occupies the pores of the support. This is in agreement with studies on broken hemispherical carbon that were similarly prepared ( Mashindi et al, 2021 ).…”

“…The higher loss in activity of the benchmark Pt/C is ascribed to low pore confinement compared to the new materials. Pore confinement of the Pt in the structure of the HCSs based supports was confirmed in a similar study involving broken hemispherical hollow carbon spheres (Mashindi et al, 2021).…”
